Voter Registration

Illinois' residents may register online,
in person at the office of the election authority, at Driver's license facilities, with deputy registrars
who are appointed in each jurisdiction, or via mail using the Illinois Voter Registration Application available in
English and
Spanish.

The pamphlet, Registering to Vote in Illinois, describes the rules and procedures surrounding the voter registration process in Illinois.
An individual may register to vote in Illinois if he/she is 18 years or older on the next election day,
resides in the jurisdiction for 30 days prior to the election, and is a U.S. citizen.

Registration is closed during the 27 days prior to an election. Individuals who miss the deadline may register or transfer their registration at the office of the election authority under the guidelines of grace period registration.
